    Hi All,

     

    I have a cluster of eight IAP 207. We have recently purchased  a bunch of TVs. When these TV are turn on , and connected to the wifi , the vc is seeing them as foreign clients with a classsifiacation of being valid.

     

    Should I be concern with this? The TV are Sharp Roku TVs.

    Valid clients are OK. Read this to learn more.

    That little blurb talks about AP.

    Doesn't really apply to my situations.

    I guess if they are not being displayed as interfering and are being displayed as valid then I should not worry about it causing any issue on the wifi network.
